Simple Saturday Bird

This mini card is perfect to tuck into a gift and can be pulled together with the right punches in minutes. Mix and match Stampin' Up! Love Letter Designer Series Paper (117162) for real pizzazz.

I wanted you to see how easy it is to create the matching envelope.

First, sacrifice and disassemble one Stampin' Up! 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" Whisper White Mini Square Envelope. Do this guilt-free. You can use it over and over 🙂

Attach a little Love Letter polka dot pattern to the envelope template (above) with Dotto (repositionable adhesive, 103305). Use Paper Snips (103579) to zip around the curves (no need to trace). Dotto makes it easy to pull the finished pattern off the template.

Score and adhere. You gotta love this two-sided paper! Pretty from both directions.

The Stampin' Up! Two-Step Bird Punch Extra Large (117191) crops out the bird, wing and stem in one squeeze.

DON'T MISS the sweet Black Flourish Designer Jewels on the sentiment (now available in the Holiday Mini, 1120987). Use them individually as a "dot, dot, dot" to a sentiment. The "fabulous" stamp is from Fabulous Phrases (oh, so versatile, WM 117002, CM 120501). It's cropped with the Modern Label Punch Extra Large (119849).

Oh Cassandra . . . you are so observant 🙂 I didn’t even think about the blocks. I have used my old non-SU blocks for ages as stands for my photos–at least they had a purpose! My cards often enjoy a little “heightening” (think Seinfeld). I only use the SU clear blocks for stamping . . . they are my “jewels.” So comfortable (rounded edges) and the perfect weight. Hugs, M

Hi, I always love your blog… such great ideas and creativity shared. I was wondering what you sometimes place your cards on to take your photos? The clear block, it doesn’t look like a SU clear block, but I could be mistaken?

How cute … great card I could make since I have all these punches and die cuts. I will have to use different paper but can’t wait to make one or two or three. 😀 Thanks Mary for sharing this wonderful creation with us. You rock as always.
